ISAD 2012

INTERNATIONAL STUTTERING AWARENESS DAY OCTOBER 22ND

Since 1998, every year on October 22 we celebrate ISAD. Isn’t this an excellent joint project between ISA, IFA, ASHA Division 4 and ELSA? Haven’t we already accomplished a lot together?

Self-help groups and the national associations become very active and creative when International Stuttering Awareness Day approaches. The Stuttering Homepage is the home of the regular online conferences on stuttering every October 1 to 22. There is big media coverage in many countries. People who stutter from self-help groups as well as professionals are interviewed for TV and newspapers. Excellent projects, interesting discussions and parties occur around the World around October 22. It is so gratifying to see how the national associations use this Day for working and celebrating. Isn’t International Stuttering Awareness Day an excellent model for further future cooperation of the stuttering community together with professionals.
